NASA’s Commercial LEO Destinations program is working on private space stations. Orbital Reef will include an inflatable made by Sierra Space. There’s also Starlab, which is a single launch big can, and Axiom, which is like ISS 2.0 and will bud off the ISS.
And there are other companies working in stations. Gravitics and Vast are making cans. Max Space has concepts for inflatables.
